Get a “Green Loan” for Home Improvement

Help the planet (and save money) with green energy loans

Now is the perfect time to consider “getting off the grid” and switching to renewable green energy. Whether you install solar paneling or go with a water preservation system, your energy savings can be significant when you green your home. Every little bit helps—for your budget and our planet.

But the initial technological costs of going green can often prove daunting to many of us. Prosper can help. We strive to assist worthy social causes—and helping the environment through green energy initiatives benefits everyone.

Consider starting with small steps. Going green may not demand a complete remodel of your home. Energy-efficient green roofing and green windows can help dramatically lower your heating and cooling costs. And if you live in a dry environment, consider switching over to green landscaping that uses native plants and flowers. Not only will you enhance your curb appeal, but you may significantly lower your water bill too.

By taking these steps, you can help keep more money in your pocket every month, while making the world a better place for future generations.

Prosper Makes It Easy To Go Green

Many aspects of adopting an environmentally friendly lifestyle—such as choosing green products or recycling—carry little or no cost. But for larger projects, such as installing solar roofing, green loans become a consideration. If you’re looking for a personal loan for green home improvement projects, Prosper can help.

*Seasoned Return calculations represent historical performance data for the Borrower Payment Dependent Notes (”Notes”) issued and sold by Prosper since July 15, 2009. To be included in the calculations, Notes must be associated with a borrower loan originated more than 10 months ago; this calculation uses loans originated through May 31, 2012. Our research shows that Prosper Note returns historically have shown increased stability after they’ve reached ten months of age. For that reason, we provide “Seasoned Returns”, defined as the Return for Notes aged 10 months or more.

To calculate the Return, all payments received on borrower loans, net of principal repayment, credit losses, and servicing costs for such loans, are aggregated and then divided by the average daily amount of aggregate outstanding principal. To annualize this cumulative return, it is divided by the dollar-weighted average age of the loans in days and then multiplied by 365.

All calculations were made as of September 30th, 2013. Seasoned Return is not necessarily indicative of the future performance on any Notes.
